Welcome to our e-Tourist Guide of Samos, Ikaria and Fournoi!

Samos, Ikaria, Fournoi: three islands very close to each other, which can travel you through space and time, in myth and history, to the wonders of nature and humans.

Since antiquity to the present day, these three islands have been recorded as sites of unique natural beauty and praised by poets and travellers throughout the centuries.

Words of great teachers, wise men, Ionian poets flow through time like the wind, into the ruins of ancient temples, the derelict walls, the deserted ancient market. Pirates’ sails billowing in the wind, Icarus’ wings opening and reaching sea coasts, towns and villages in islands, to remind that beauty is both land, nature, sea and spiritual experiences, greatness of ideas and insights, that bind the fates of gods and men.
